Abstract: The present invention relates to the treatment of Epidermolysis Bullosa, particularly the recessive dystrophic subtype (RDEB), using the Clustered- Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) system. This technology offers the possibility to design a single guide RNA (sgRNA) which is incorporated into a CRISPR- associated protein (Cas9) to recognize and induce DNA double-strand breaks at a specific target location. DNA double-strand breaks will be repaired by homologous recombination (HR) in the presence of a donor sequence for Epidermolysis Bullosa gene repair. In the context of Epidermolysis Bullosa, this allows to repair the mutation/s causing the disease.

Title: Sensor arrangement and method for measuring fouling and/or erosion, and machine monitoring fouling and/or erosion
Inventor: MOCHI GIANNI
IPC: G01N29/036
Filed: 2020-04-20
Abstract: The sensor arrangement (200) may be used for measuring fouling and/or erosion in a machine. A first piezoelectric transducer (210), a first plate (230) and eventually a first support member (230) form a first vibrating mass (210+220+230). After electrically stimulating the first piezoelectric transducer (210), the first vibrating mass (210+220+230) starts vibrating mechanically and consequently the first piezoelectric transducer (210) generates an electric resonance vibration; the electric resonance vibration is at a resonance frequency depending on the mass of the first vibrating mass (210+220+230). If the mass of the first vibrating mass (210+220+230) changes due to e.g. fouling and/or erosion by a flow of working fluid in the machine, also the electric resonance vibration frequency changes; such vibration frequency change may be measured and the corresponding mass change may be determined by comparison with a vibration frequency of a second vibrating mass (340+350+360) not exposed to the flow of working fluid in the machine.

IPC: G06F16/332
Filed: 2020-04-23
Abstract: A chat bot computing system includes a bot controller and a natural language processor. The natural language processor receives a first textual input and identifies concepts represented by the first textual input. An indication of the concepts is output to the bot controller which generates a response to the first textual input. The concepts output by the natural language processor are also fed back into the input to the natural language processor, as context information, along with an expiration indicator when a second textual input is received. The natural language processor then identifies concepts represented in the second textual input, based on the second natural language, textual input and unexpired context information.

Title: Distributed system that promotes task-machine affinity
Inventor: ZHU JIA
IPC: G06F9/50
Filed: 2020-05-21
Abstract: A technique is described herein for allocating tasks within a distributed system. The distributed system includes plural computing devices. Each computing device, in turn, provides a bucket manager and at least one application instance. The bucket managers allocate work to the computing devices in units of buckets, in a manner governed by a set of application-specific initialization parameters. The bucket managers also perform their assignment function in cooperation with a separate storage and notification (S&N) system. The S&N system stores data nodes in a hierarchical data structure that reflect the assignment-related state of the distributed system. The S&N system also notifies the bucket managers upon changes in the data nodes. According to one provision, the bucket managers include logic that reduces expensive context changes when computing devices join and leave the distributed system.

Abstract: Devices and methods of endolumenal formation of gastric sleeves are described. In some embodiments, a bougie capsule section comprises one or more mechanisms to allow flexing that induces a bend through a suction clamping domain that grabs, positions, and holds body lumen tissue (e.g., gastric wall tissue). In some embodiments, a needle drive is configured to allow longitudinal movement of a helical needle through a suturing space defined by the suction clamping domain, optionally while the suction clamping domain is bent. In some embodiments, the suction clamping domain can insert to the stomach in a collapsed configuration, then expanded once in the stomach. Potentially, this allows grabbing and positioning larger and/or deeper folds of tissue for suturing.
